Yes I went around the dealer and went straight to Ariel. Also let them know about the behavior of the dealer.

Yes it was recommended to take a disposable electric toothbrush and use it as a vibrator on the lines. It was perfect timing as I just bought a new one. I prefer using the drip bottle at the levers and syringe at the bottom, however, the cup was recommended as the best option for spotting...

you're absolutely right. At this point my only option is to try and ride it to a shop a mile or two away. I was try to avoid this unsafe decision but it's way too heavy to walk all that way (plus disability). Also Pride is a hell of a drug and I really wanted to be able to fix my own bike but...
